Product Description:
It should be the happiest day of Goldy the caterer's life. After years of putting the disaster of her very first marriage behind her, she has finally found the courage to love again. Soon she'll be walking down the aisle of St. Luke's Episcopal Church to wed the man of her dreams, Tom Schulz, a homicide detective who shares Goldy's passions for preparing food and solving crimes.
But moments after Goldy's put the finishing touches on the scrumptious wedding feast, and just before the ceremony begins, she receives an urgent phone call from the groom. The wedding is off, and the reason is a killer.
In The Last Suppers, Diane Mott Davidson mixes irresistible suspense with delectable humour to create a five-star treat for readers and cooks alike. Included are Goldy's original recipes for such delicious dishes as her heavenly Dark Chocolate Wedding Cake with White Peppermint Frosting, savory Shrimp on Wheels and zesty Fusilli in Parmesan Cream Sauce. The Last Suppers is a mystery with a gourmet twist--recipes no one can resist!

Well, I sure got tired of reading about Goldie's fiance who is kidnapped. Goldie ignores the police and too many times leads them on several wild goose chases. It was a bit monotonous when reading about the church groups and the ministers in the church. I did not think the plot was at all plausible and especially finding out who was the person responsible for the kidnapping. I do not think this was one of her better mysteries.

"The Last Suppers" by Diane Mott Davidson, ©1994
Mystery books get stranger all the time. Now here is a caterer who solves mysteries. I could see game wardens or national park rangers, but caterers...??
This is a good story. The oddity of having recipes sprinkled throughout is fun and makes me hungry. I will not be able to sell this book until I get those recipes copied, for no good reason, except that Mary wants to have them. She will not make them:they are too fat and salty and sweet.
This is a big runaround story. All of the sudden, everything happens and does not stop until the end. Whew, what a fast story. You know all along that everything will turn out okay, except for the people who get killed, but they are not people the author wants you to care about, so they are okay to kill off. It is like in "Star Trek" where, if someone is killed, it is always one of the 'extras' who is introduced for that show only.
The heroine's wedding is put on hold because her groom is missing. He stumbled onto a murder and is spirited away by the murderer to an unknown location. The rest of the book is about her trying to find him, by solving the mystery of who done the murder in the very first place, so the murderer can tell her where her groom is. She exhibits wild and crazy antics during the story and manages to cater a couple of lunches and what not in between. I do not know if that could happen in real life, but maybe it could.

Diane Mott Davidson always keeps the reader involved in her writings, and "The Last Suppers" is no exception. From the time Goldie starts her quest to find her missing fiance until they marry, you're wondering what can happen to this single mother next. I enjoy the recipes that come along as part of the package (and so does my family and friends). Hope everyone has as much fun with this novel as I did.

Goldy Bear, our lovable caterer, is back and waiting at the church for her bridegroom. When Tom calls her and says he cant make it because their priest has been murdered Goldy is devestated. However, this doesnt end her bad day. Tom has been kidnapped by the murderer and no one knows who that is, or where theyve gone. A cryptic note written by Tom at the scene is all the police and Goldy have to go on to find her fiance before its too late.
This is a cute series with great recipes.
